The Second “P” to Change: Promises In my very late second installment of the 4 “Ps” to Change post, (if you missed the first, check it out here) I would like to talk about God’s promises, and how standing on them will help you to succeed in your goals. This can apply to any goals, but…
Thanks to my sweet and beautiful sister-in-law for this tip! This is the recipe she uses and said it works great. It was originally found on an image on Pinterest, with no credit. I tried a google images search and came up with nothing. What do you say about an all natural sunscreen, with no…

Casting Crowns has got to be my all-time favorite group. Don’t get me wrong, there are LOTS of great Christian artists and groups out there, but CC just always hits right to the heart of the matter in everything. They don’t mince words and they aren’t afraid to tell it like it is, even if…

If I were to pick just ONE clothing store I had to shop at for the rest of my life, it would be (well, aside from Victoria’s Secret)….bet you guessed it….Kohl’s! And here are MY reasons why: 1. I can find just about everything I need, and more often than not WANT, shopping in just…
Sometimes (a lot!) it’s the kids who teach a lesson. My boys give me ideas often, and this is the most recent. Boys are something else. No matter where they are, they can turn playtime into a game of war. Have you caught your boys playing war lately? Today we were at the school playground,…
I just love The Skit Guys. They are great; so much fun, always clean, and safe for the kids to watch with me. They REALLY appreciate mothers. I mean, I saw their new video today and noticed they had eight videos just about/for moms! Those are what I’m going to share with you today, in…

With kids on the Spectrum, new foods are really tricky. Of my four boys, three are super picky, and one is insanely picky. (J3, in case you’re curious!) I have had to come up with a few tricks to get them to at least try new things. I don’t expect them to love it. Just…

Each is at a different stage in life: Butch is facing single…
Welcome to the second Thankful Thursday Link-up hosted on BBB! Last week didn’t go very well, and I’m disappointed to learn that I don’t even get any more image posts for the link-up, unless I pay for an upgrade. Not cool! Oh well – we’ll just deal with text links. 🙂 I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…
Hi, everyone, I’m Amanda Goff, the other Amanda. 😉 I’m glad to be here and share something I’ve been passionate about! Is there anyone out there looking to make a change? If we are honest with ourselves we all have an area (or areas in my case) where we could stand to make some changes….

I have recently been more looking into All About Learning Press‘s curriculum. I have heard of All About Reading and All About Spelling, of course, but have been really happy with the Christian Light Education curriculum I’ve been using, so saw no need to switch anything. However, Jamin is a completely different learner than his…
